I am sure Eric (Numptie)would have been there if it was possible, but he is away and will not be back until Saturday. I will make all efforts to be there. CT

Good to hear Tut is improving, if you read this Tut you are missed at the sprints, Ali is getting things far too easy John As for the trackday in October. My car is at RSC Motorsport getting a little work done, it was running rough as a badgers a**e at Golspie, and while they have it they are fitting a Gripper diff, it was one of the things I was going to get done over the winter but as it was there anyway I thought I would just get it done now, so assuming it goes OK at Alford on Sunday a trip to KH later in the month sounds good, get this seasons tyres completely worn out so I get some new ones from Santa CT

I saw a picture of Tut's car there Was anyone speaking with him, if so how is he ? BTW some great pictures, i haven't been to a track day for ages, the sprints and hillclimbs have been taking up so much weekend time, seeing the pictures has made me want to do some again though.

Sorry I couldn't be there but it clashed with the sprint at Boyndie. Sounds like John organised another great day, I certainly enjoyed last years event and if there is another later in the year I will try to be there. CT

Numptie has not been very well recently , he had an operation on earlier this week and was still in hospital last night, he hopes to get out today though. Anyway best wishes to him for a speedy recovery. CT

Salt and ................................. Shake ?

Signed this a couple of weeks ago. On the subject of supporting motorsport, the Fintray hillclimb is this weekend, come along and support motorsport in Scotland, and a couple of SIDC members who are competing, though I will only be there on Sunday, other commitments Saturday

Mine ain't there, probably a good thing. BTW I am now looking for a Katie, not that I like big feet though

<< My favourite has to be.....

BigDaz I hired a trailer from Balgownie Machinery Centre, Aberdeen it cost £65 for the weekend. It isn't cheap but it was a good trailer and was worth it for me at the time. An alternative is to get the car transported, I used Aberdeen Trailers to bring a car from the south of Englandshire (Littlehampton) to Aberdeen, that cost a little over £300, from Leeds it would presumably be less. CT

Is this the 1/4 mile thingy or is it a race meeting ? Weather permitting, I might take the kitcar there on Sunday.

<< Newbie question - do you have to take your driving licience with you??? >> I have never been asked to show my licence and I believe that you must only make the declaration that you hold a current licence. However if available it is probably prudent to take it with you just in case you are asked to produce it.

I have only done 12 miles in the car so I hope there will be some dry laps early on, please !

Thanks Zoelite, but while I don't mind a car which needs a little tidying, I really want something I can drive now. I am possibly going to Plymouth :eek: to see one this weekend - There has got to be something closer ! There is a twin engined Westfield for sale in Aberdeen but it is not road registered - no lights etc - and I need one that is on the road. Cheers CT

Extract from the P&J "But the court heard that Mr MacGregor's Subaru Impreza WRX was a "grey import" from Japan and was therefore fitted with an electronic speed limiter - a legal requirement in its country of origin. The court was told that although cars of this type were usually capable of high speeds and were often used for rallying, this one was not because it had been built for the Japanese market." Aparently he was clocked at 132mph despite his car not being capable of exceeding 107mph, and he was cleared ! While not condoning speeding, and it was not proven he was speeding, would anyone else not have had this restrictor removed. CT

Having been badly let down by a seller, I am looking for a kit car suitable for use in sprints and hillclimbs. If you have one you want to turn into cash (to spend on your Scooby of course), or know of someone who wants to sell one please let me know. Narrow bodied Westfields are probably not best for my own wide body , but anything will be considered. Ta CT

Actually CT is looking for work for his son. Preferably close to Aberdeen. If anyone knows of a full time job for a fit, keen young lad, he is going on 21, I would appreciate the info. He completed an HND in Communication with Media (Journalism, PR, Press and Broadcasting, Advertising, Writing for the Media) then went to do voluntary conservation work in Malaysia for a few months. Since returning he has been working nights handing out fliers but is looking for something full time, either permanent or temporary. It doesn't have to be connected with his HND but obviously would be good if it was. I know this is nothing to do with Imprezas, but he does go to track days Any leads would be appreciated. Ta CT

Brian james auto trailer.Only 18 months old.Good condition.£3000 £3000 !!!!!! FFS !!!! I was thinking about half of that ! JAC Thanks for the offer of a contact for cheap hire and I may take you up on that if I can't get one bought in time, but I really want to get one of my own. Cheers Guys CT

I am looking for a trailer to carry my kit car, the car is slightly bigger than a Caterfield at 12' long and 5' 10" wide so the trailer needs to be 6' wide minimum. Anything considered but it must be usable 'as is' , I have enough to do to the car without having to work on a trailer. If you have a trailer you are not using or you know of one that might be available I would appreciate any leads. If I get one in time I will be able to do the March track day Ta CT

I have 4 x 225/45-17 RE070 for sale, they are new and are very cheap, I am asking £360 for them, apparently JohnS checked around and the best price he could get was £180 each. They are probably not the best winter tyres but they are very sticky in the dry. CT

Stiks I don't know if they would be a good mix or not, but you could buy all four RE070s and solve the problem that way. They are really cheap at £90each CT

But I am not a greedy chap John, and they are no good for my new car they are just taking up space in the garage, so if i get something for them and someone gets use of them everybody wins. Somebody must want some good sticky tyres cheap !

I actually have 4 of these as the guy who wanted to buy two has deceided they wouldn't suit his car !!! I believe they are horrendously expensive to buy but I am a nice guy and only want around £90 each for them. But will listen to offers - I have selective deafness though

Not what I was thinking of but yes a half chewed caramel sweetie is indeed brown and sticky. Want to buy some tyres ????

I have two RE070s for sale, they are 225/45-17 and are new (delivery mileage) Make me an offer - A sensible one ! These are very sticky tyres. BTW - What is brown and sticky ?
